No one likes surprises, especially while holding your baby. The Toddleroo by North States® Light the Way Gate® with a light-sensing LED sensor ensures a quiet life while keeping your baby safe day or night. The gate light will turn on when the room is dark, making it easy for you to see and open the gate. As the room becomes light, the LED sensor will automatically turn the light off. The gate can adjust between 28.75 - 38.25 inches wide and comes with two extensions included. This adjustable baby gate uses the tension knobs to secure it in place between walls. You can also hardware mount the gate for use at the top of stairs with hardware-secured mounting cups. The low threshold design of this gate is 50% lower than traditional metal pressure gates, making use safer for all. A control knob allows you to decide between only allowing the gate to swing in one direction (for top of stairs) or allowing the gate to swing in both directions (best between rooms/doorways). The LED spring-loaded baby gate will simply latch behind you for simple hands-free use. If you want the door to remain open, swing the door past 90 degrees to get the hold-open feature to kick in. Every Toddleroo by North States baby gate is JPMA and ASTM certified. Need to make the gate wider? The Light the Way Gate has additional extensions (sold separately) that will expand the gate up to 67.5 inches wide. If you have a wider hallway/doorway opening, take advantage of our 6-inch extension and 12-inch extension options.

FAQ's:
My pressure-mounted metal gate came out of the package looking bent and has a gap where the latch should be. What do I do?
When you unpack this gate, you may notice that it is not square. This is normal and the gate is not damaged. It is manufactured at a pre-set angle so that when it is installed properly in an opening, it will maintain the correct amount of tension. This tension prevents the gate from being dislodged from the opening under normal use. Please read and follow the instruction manual carefully.
Can I add more extensions to my pressure-mounted metal gate?
Not all of our gates have the option to increase its width with extensions. If your gate has additional extensions available, they will be found in our Baby Gate Extensions section of our website. Because extensions are not universal but are exclusive to the gate, the easiest way to find them is to search with the 4-digit model number of the gate. If the gate has additional extensions available for purchase, they will show in the results. Otherwise, the product page of your specific gate will also offer any available extensions that can be purchased separately.
Do I need to use the mounting cups that are included in the hardware package?
The mounting cups should be used to ensure the safety and security of the gate.
Can I get replacement parts for my gate?
Most components will be included in a prepackaged hardware set and may not be sold separately. Any Baby Gate Replacement Parts that are offered can be ordered directly on our website by using the search feature to search with the 4-digit model number (or name) of the product. All available replacement parts will show in the results. If you do not see the component that you are looking for, that means it is not something available for ordering or may be for a discontinued gate.
Can I use my pressure-mounted gate at the top of my stairs?
Unless it states specifically that it is intended to be used at the top of a stairway, we do not recommend the use of our pressure-mounted gates at the top of the stairs. Only hardware-mounted gates that are permanently installed into a wooden stud/surface are safe to use at the top of a stairway. With enough force, a pressure-mounted gate may become dislodged and no longer hold tension, leading to falls, injury, or damage. You can view all of our Top of Stairs Baby Gates on our website.
Do you make an adapter that will let me mount my hardware-mounted gate as a pressure-mounted gate so I do not have to drill holes in my wall?
We do not manufacture, or recommend using, an adapter to alter the way our hardware mounted gates install. All of our Hardware-Mounted Baby Gates must be attached directly to a solid surface such as a wooden stud. This will require drilling holes into the surface.
Can I use wall anchors to install my gate into drywall?
Our Hardware-Mounted Baby Gates should not be installed using anchors. Because drywall anchors have a maximum limit as to how much weight they can withstand, it cannot be guaranteed that the gate will not dislodge and pull from the wall when mounted with an anchor, which could lead to damage or injury. Hardware mounted gates require a solid surface, such as a wooden stud, to be properly installed.
Can I add an extension to my hardware-mounted metal gate?
Not all of our gates have the option to increase its width with extensions. If your gate has additional extensions available, they will be found in our Baby Gate Extensions section of our website. Because extensions are not universal but are exclusive to the gate, the easiest way to find them is to search with the 4-digit model number of the gate. If the gate has additional extensions available for purchase, they will show in the results. Otherwise, the product page of your specific gate will also offer any available extensions that can be purchased separately.

I received this gate as...
I received this gate as a gift and ADORE it. The nightlight is one of the smartest gate features I've seen! I love the easy locking mechanism on the handle. We have this gate installed at our 2 year old's door, and it really helps with bedtime, because he can't just push it open to run out. It's also really nicely designed from a visual perspective, and doesn't look like an eyesore in the middle of our hallway.

We bought this gate a...
We bought this gate a month ago and it has been fantastic. I was glad that it was simple to install and the instructions were very clear. We placed the gate at the top of our staircase and can now leave our 11 month old zoom around with peace of mind. The light is quite handy and acts as a guide in the evening so we can maneuver around without having to turn on the lights on the staircase or the hallway. We also appreciate how sturdy and solid the gate is as our 11 month old is a good 27 pounds and climbs up on the gate several times a day.
